Human airway epithelial NCI-H292 cells (ATCC, Manassas, VA, USA) were cultured in RPMI 1640 medium supplemented with 200 mM l-glutamine, 10% (vol/vol) fetal calf serum, 100 IU/ml penicillin, 100 μg/ml streptomycin, and 2.5 mg/liter glucose and buffered with 25 mM HEPES at 37°C in a humidified, 5% CO2 water-jacketed incubator. Then, the cells were cultured overnight under serum-free conditions and treated with the peptides (5 or 20 μM). After 24 h, the cell viability was assessed by measuring the release of lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) as previously reported (22 (link)).

NCI-H292 Xenograft Mouse Model

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
All animal experiments were approved by our Institutional Animal Care Committee (IACUC). Mice were maintained with free access to standard chow and water. NCI-H292 human lung cancer cells were obtained from the American Type Culture Collection (ATCC). They were cultured in RPMI medium supplemented with 10% (v/v) fetal bovine serum (FBS). The cells were maintained in a humidified atmosphere of 5% CO2 at 37 °C. For H292 xenograft studies, 7- to 9-week-old female athymic nu/nu (Charles River Laboratories) mice were inoculated subcutaneously in the right hind flank with 5 × 106 NCI-H292 cells (ATCC) suspended 1:1 (v/v) with Matrigel in serum-free medium. Clinical observations, body weights, and digital caliper tumor volume measurements were made two times weekly once tumors became measureable. Tumor volumes were calculated with the formula (ab2)/2, where a is the longer and b is the smaller of two perpendicular diameters.

Influenza, strain A PR/8/34, and respiratory syncytial virus (RSV)‐A2 were used. RSV was propagated in HEp‐2 cells in IMDM (Lonza) culture medium supplemented with 1% FCS and influenza on NCI‐H292 cells (ATCC CRL 1848) in RPMI‐1640 with 1% FCS. At day 3 postinfection, when cytopathic effects were observed, the supernatant was harvested. Cell debris was removed by centrifugation at 3000 g for 10 minutes and the supernatant was snap frozen and stored at −80°C.

Virus stocks of influenza A/H1N1 subtype: FM/1/47, Bangkok/10/83, Beijing/262/95, Oita/OU1P3-3/09, and A/H3N2 subtype: Udorn/72, Aichi/2/68, and B/Ibaragi/2/85 were used for virus infection. All strains were grown in the chorioallantonic fluid of 10-day-old chicken eggs. The aliquots of each virus preparation were stored at −80 °C until use. Human lung carcinoma, NCI-H292 cells (ATCC CRL1848) or A549 cells (ATCC CCL185) were used for the host cells. These cells were grown in RPMI-1640 supplemented with 10% fetal bovine serum, 100 IU/ml penicillin, and 100 μg/ml streptomycin (GIBCO, NY, USA). Influenza HA vaccine “SEIKEN” containing a mixture of A/California/7/2009 (H1N1), A/Victoria/210/2009 (H3N2), and B/Brisbane/60/2008 was used as HA protein preparation (Denka-Seiken, Tokyo, Japan).

Viral stocks of influenza A/H1N1/Oita/OU1P3-3/09 and A/H3N2/Udorn/72 were used for viral infection. Viruses were grown in the chorioallantoic fluid of 10-day-old chicken eggs. Aliquots of each viral preparation were stored at −80 °C until use. Human lung carcinoma NCI-H292 cells (ATCC CRL1848) were used as host cells. The cells were grown in RPMI-1640 supplemented with 10% fetal bovine serum, 100 IU ml−1 penicillin, and 100 μg ml−1 streptomycin (Gibco).

Anti-influenza Virus Activity Assay

Anti-influenza virus activity was determined according to the method described previously [12 (link),13 (link)]. Human NCI-H292 cells (ATCC CRL1848) grown in a 48-well plate were infected with influenza virus A/H3N2/Udorn/72 strain at a multiplicity of infection (moi) of 2.5. Various concentrations of the lectin were added simultaneously into the cell cultures. At 24 h post-infection (hpi), the infected cells were fixed with 80% acetone and stained with 0.5% amide black in 45% ethanol and 10% acetic acid. The stained plates were pictured with a grayscale. The color densities of the pictures were quantitated by densitometry with the NIH-ImageJ 1.48v software. The infected cell cultures, in the absence of lectin, exhibited severe cytopathic effects, and almost all cells on the wells were gone, with the percentage of cell viability shown as 0%. On the other hand, cells in the mock-infected cell cultures were intact, in which the percentage of cell viability was shown as 100%.

Airway Epithelial Cell Culture Protocol

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Human bronchial epithelial (HBE) cells and human NCI-H292 cells (lung mucoepidermoid carcinoma cell line) were purchased from the ATCC (Manassas, VA), propagated and maintained in RPMI 1640 medium supplemented with 10% fetal bovine serum in a 37 C, 5% CO 2 incubator. After reaching >90% confluence, the cells were incubated in serum-free medium for 12 hours to synchronize the cell cycle and to return serum-activated signaling pathways to basal levels before exposure to CS extract (CSE).
To isolate and identify airway epithelial cell-specific response in vitro, primary mouse tracheal epithelial cells (MTECs) were obtained from the tracheas of C57BL/6 mice or Atf3 À/À mice. Harvesting of MTECs was performed in accordance with previously described methods, 17 (link) and the cells were seeded onto Transwell inserts in 12-well plates (0.4-mm pore, 12-mm diameter; Corning, Corning, NY) and cultured at 37 C in a 5% CO 2 incubator. After an approximately 2-week proliferative phase, the cells reached confluence. The apical medium was removed to switch the cells to the differentiation phase (an additional 2 weeks) at an air-liquid interface (ALI) to achieve mucociliary differentiation. The cells were then exposed to CSE after differentiation was established.

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
